| Abstract: | First paragraph: Britain is riven by economic inequality: wealth and income gaps have never been wider; many paid jobs barely pay; and serious long-term health conditions are most prevalent among people from the poorest communities. This is especially true of those living in multigenerational households and working in historically undervalued sectors, such as social care – rhetorically re-framed as ‘essential’ by politicians and journalists only until the COVID-19 panic subsided (and, with it, any pretence of seriously starting to value them). |
